CPT Violation from Planck Scale Physics

الأصل · EN

I address the phenomenology of CPT violation in the neutral kaon system under the assumption that it originates from Planck scale physics. This assumption opens the door to a new set of CPT violating parameters whose phenomenology is distinct from the Δ parameter usually considered in the Hamiltonian. The origin of these parameters reflects a possible departure from a S-matrix evolution. Existing bounds on CPT violation are near the expected range based on naive dimensional analysis. This provides a strong incentive to pursue the quest of CPT violation in near-future kaon experiments. (Talk given at the Workshop on K Physics, Orsay, France, May 30 - June 4, 1996.)
